A little over half of the world's mobile game revenue comes from Asia
SINGAPORE — The Asia-Pacific region has half of the world's mobile gamers, and generates a little over half of mobile game revenue, a study has found.
Video game research firm Eedar said there are about 1.5 billion people playing games on their mobile devices — both smartphones and tablets — and will have paid $25 billion by the end of this year, either through buying games or via in-game purchases for credits and power-ups.
This $25 billion accounts for 30% of the larger video game market, and mobile games continue to contribute a larger proportion of the pie, up from 15% in 2011.
